Family most important for Hugh Jackman

Actor Hugh Jackman, who is married to actress Deborra-Lee Furness, gives priority to his family life over his career.

"Debs has strength and a lot of courage. She is very grounded. Our family matters more than anything - and I mean anything," Sunday Telegraph newspaper quoted Jackman as saying.

"At the Oscars (in 2009), when I put my hand on my heart, that's a sign to Debs out there, a reminder that this is what matters and that all the rest - the awards and the money and the fame - may come and go," the 44-year-old actor said.

The couple have two adopted children -- son Oscar, 13, and eight-year-old daughter Ava.
